The No. 0 Brownie Camera
- February 28th, 2010.
Today has been a day of magical delight, from the 14th April 1903, in the shape of a rectangular box!
My grandar owned a beautiful Box Brownie many years ago and it has just been rediscovered - to my excitement it is in perfect condition! Having just downloaded the manual from BrownieCamera.nl, I am eager to see if the vintage camera itself still works!
Fingers crossed!

I have had the opportunity to see and handle a Brownie Box Camera for a while at a friend’s place. The camera has viewfinder with a reflex mirror assembly and also windows in front, at the top and an angled mirror inside that connects the two. To compose pictures it is required to hold the camera at waist-level and look down into the finder.
